NRA Basic Personal Protection Inside the Home

Description

Unlike the other
basic courses, the Personal Protection course from Best Handgun Training covers defensive
shooting. Self-defense is a topic somewhat distinct from the regular diet of shooting fundamentals, it can cover
mindset, legal issues, decision-making under pressure, and planning for the worst. The Basic Personal Protection in
the Home course is designed around the use of the defensive pistol.

Course Goal

“To develop in the students the
basicknowledge, skills, and
attitude essential to the safe and efficient
use of a handgun for protection of self and family, and to provide information on the law-abiding citizen's
right to self-defense.”

Course Review and Examination

Prerequisites

Participants in
the Personal Protection course should be experienced shooters, showing mastery of the basic skills of safe gun
handling. If necessary, this course will put participant's through a pre-course evaluation exercise, where
potential students are asked to demonstrate safe gun handling, shoot a series of five-shot groups, discuss the
operations necessary to zero a pistol, and demonstrate how to properly clean a handgun.

Finally, the
Personal Protection course is intended for mature law-abiding adults, who have the mindset and seriousness
necessary to properly perform the activities in the course. Self-defense is not a topic where distractions are
tolerated.

Course Completion

Instructors will
provide feedback on the shooting exercises, and issue an NRA certificate upon successful completion of the lessons.
Not only are shooting standards fired during the practical exercises, but a written exam will be given at the end
of the course.
